Single sign-on doesn't require a LDAP server, but some kind of central
identity magament which can be supplied by using a Kerberos V KDC like
the Kerberos V MIT implementation that comes in the form of krb5-*
packages for Fedora Core.

Once upon I time I wrote the attached document which enumerates all
the steps I had to perform in order to set up a Kerberos V KDC and how
to configure services like OpenSSH to support single sign-on. HTH.
